Ade Treasurer's Report, Fiscal Year, September 1, 2005-August 31, 2006

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

The finances of the Association for Documentary Editing have improved over the last year. This year, we had an increase of $6,438 in the general budget, giving us unrestricted assets of nearly $61,000. This increase was a nice change from three consecutive years of minor deficit spending. The increase can be attributed to several things: first, there were approximately forty more dues-paying members this year; second, the dues increase was in effect for the entire year; third, interest rates more than doubled from the previous year; and finally, several of the expenditures were much less than budgeted. While the addition …

Socio-Cultural Degeneration And State Patronage Of The Arts: Mapplethorpe, Cultural Crisis, And The Nea, Greyson C. Brooks

Undergraduate Research Symposium (UGRS)

The goal of this paper is to investigate how the Untied States federal government, specifically through the National Endowment for the Arts, or NEA, has acted in the position of an arts patron in the past few decades. Specifically, this paper will focus on the past decade and a half since the 'arts crisis' of the late 1980s and the social and political backlash against the art community in the 1990s, which was only against ‘offensive’ art that was seen as morally and culturally corruptive. I explore the political, social, and economic forms the backlash took, particularly rooted in a …

2007 Conference was held in Richmond, Virginia November 16th to November 18th.

Announcement--Note From The Editor, Marianne S. Wokeck

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

Under the current circumstances of easy and widespread electronic communication, reduced budgets, and increasing costs for printing and postage, it seems practical as well as prudent to streamline the publication schedule of Documentary Editing by collapsing the Winter and Spring issues into one Spring issue (published in February) and the Summer and Fall issues into one Fall issue (published in August). The current issue (Volume 28, Number 4) brings the old schedule to a close; Volume 29 (2007) is transitional; and Volume 30 will appear under the new regimen of two installments that fit the rhythm of the academic calendar: …

Potret Penghulu Dalam Naskah; Sebuah Pengalaman Penelitian, Muhamad Hisyam

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

In the daily life of the Indonesian people, a penghulu plays a role in accordance with the way the word is understood by the community in which he lives. In West Sumatra, a penghulu is the head of the nagari. In Riau, he has a status equal to that of a head of a village. In Java, he has an authority in all administrative matters of religion. This paper discusses the meaning of penghulu as depicted in old manuscripts written by the natives. Based on a research on these native manuscripts, it can be concluded that a penghulu plays the …

Bentuk Gambar Telapak Tangan Pada Gua-Gua Prasejarah Di Kabupaten Pangkajene Kepulauan, Sulawesi Selatan, R. Cecep Eka Permana

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Cave pictures are one form of human culture found in old sites of dwelling caves of the pre-historical time. Cave pictures can be said to be universal in nature because they are found almost every where in the world, including Indonesia. One form or object of picture frequently found is hand stencils. In Indonesia, beside Kalimantan, the Moluccas, and Irian, it is also found in South Sulawesi, especially in the District of Pangkajene Islands (Pangkep). Twelve caves in Pangkep are studied where 326 hand stencils are found. The hand part, orientation, hand side, number of fingers, size, color, and context …

Aspek Logis Dalam Pernyataan-Pernyataan Politik, Y. P. Hayon

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Each political formula in the form of a statement (argument) always has a direct interconnected political purpose relative to an important group. This importance factor becomes basic consideration in the formulation of a political statement in such a manner that it can influence public emotion and feeling producing desired agreement and response from the public. Because a wide segment of society becomes special target, with their different levels of education and understanding, the logical aspects are considered unimportant and subject to elimination. The important thing is how to encourage public emotion and encourage the public to response according to what …

Kepustakawanan Dalam "The Name Of The Rose" Karya Umberto Eco, Laksmi Laksmi

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

The Name of the Rose, a detective novel, is set by some issues on librarianship during the Middle Age in Europe. By using discourse analysis approach, I try to know how far the concept of the librarianship was understood at that time-in the novel-based on the understanding of some concepts, starting from "library", "development system", "collection handling", which includes "classification", "censorship system" and "librarians' professionalism", until some matters on borrowing and using collection. Besides, this analysis is aimed at identifying cultural values related to the librarianship. The conclusion shows that the librarianship has an important role in providing suspense elements …

Tradisi Lisan, Naskah, Dan Sejarah; Sebuah Catatan Politik Kebudayaan, I Nengah Duija

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Tradition can be seen from two different perspectives, those of literacy (writing system) and of oral tradition. Recently, some intellectuals have shown interest in oral tradition as academic study in some universities. Oral tradition is not supposed to be seen merely as part of the past and a cultural entity of no importance. This paper describes the two traditions of oral literature and manuscript writing as a basis for local historical knowledge and records of cultural politics. The discussion will be more about the content of tradition that is related to the history of cultural politics than a historical observation.

Kutukan Dan Berkah Dalam Cerita Jawa Kuna; Sebuah Refleksi Sikap Arogan Para Pemilik Kekuasaan, Dwi Woro Retno

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Old Javanese tales like Adiparwa and Sudamala are full of elements of curse cast by a man or a god. The curses take the form of words uttered full of emotion and anger to the addressee. Curses may result in a physical transformation or a change in the fate of the person cursed. A curse cast by a god demonstrates the power. A curse, however, eventually produces blessing. Curse and blessing are two things that are different from and opposite to one another.

Naskah Dan Rekonstruksi Sejarah Lokal Islam; Contoh Kasus Dari Minangkabau, Oman Fathurahman

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Manuscripts are not supposed to be something unknown to the public and possessed by limited circle of people. Manuscripts are cultural heritage of a nation the content of which reflects the ideas, knowledge, tradition, and the patterns of behavior of the past society. As such they can be of use to different segments of society. This paper discusses the benefits of manuscripts to the efforts of reconstructing Islamic intellectual history in Indonesia by studying the case of local manuscripts in the Minang region. These manuscripts are not only the products of a writing tradition that had developed strongly in the …

Nusantara Dalam Era Niaga Sebelum Abad Ke-19, Mohammad Iskandar

Wacana, Journal of the Humanities of Indonesia

Trading activities in the Nusantara archipelago had developed into an international trade. According to Ricklef, Europe was not the most developed region in the world. The developing world at the time was in fact the Islamic world, stretching from the Middle East to the Nusantara. If we trace it further back into the past, to the pre-Islamic age, trade in the Nusantara region had developed, espcially during the golden eras of Sriwijaya and Majapahit. This paper describes the economic and trade development in the Nusantara before the 19th century.

Editing Military History In The Twenty-First Century, Edward G. Lengel

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

Military historians are not usually accused of worrying about trendiness. More typically they seem like stodgy traditionalists, scoffing at postmodernism and its various spin-offs and fantasizing about putting Foucault in the path of a cannonball at Gettysburg and shouting, "Deconstruct this!" At academic conferences and in university departments, military historians are outsiders: stubbornly following tales of great battles and dead white males while their presumably more "relevant" colleagues don red berets and scribble manifestos in smoke-filled rooms. Documentary editors who work in military history are, if anything, doubly outsiders: fearing either to venture into social history, or to join traditional …

Trials And Tribulations: As Found In The Journals Of Samuel Kirkland, Christine Sternberg Patrick

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

By day I edit the papers of George Washington, one of those increasingly popular dead white men. But on nights and weekends I spend my time with Samuel Kirkland, a not-so-popular dead white man whom I would classify as above-average. I was first introduced to Kirkland in the 1980s, and shortly thereafter I made him the topic of my dissertation. Although some might describe him as a "dour Presbyterian," I find him fascinating.

By now I am sure that most readers are wondering, who is Samuel Kirkland? and, why is he above-average? So let me briefly answer these questions before …

Notes--Putting Materials On The Web: A Primer For Editors, Felicia Johnson

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

Creating a web site begins with the collection of resources, either primary or secondary or a combination of the two. Before resources can be identified as valuable and pertinent to continued scholarly research in a specific area and made available on the web, several different kinds of people invested in the project meet to discuss goals and objectives. First, everyone in the group acknowledges the relevance and importance of the resources and agrees that making the resources more accessible on the web will enhance research in that area. Then, the group takes on the task of getting the materials on …

A Note On Identifying Source Materials, Robert Scott Davis

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

Documentary editing relies on the correct and complete identification of the authorship of documents and imprints. Fraud and misidentification can occur, however, even when authorship is authenticated because a writer can create a document to mislead, such as trying to give the text undeserved authority and credibility or to present an alternative version of a particular event.
